Can a man be married and buy life insurance and put someone other than his wife as a beneficiary?

Yes. It's done ALL the time. You can leave it for the children (adult) you can put it into a trust. You can leave it to a business partner to fund a buy sell agreement. That said, the primary factor to keep in mind is that the beneficiary must have an insurable interest in the life of the person insured. Essentially, this means that the beneficiary must have a "stake" in the continued life of the insured. This can be financial (such as a child dependent upon support, or even a business partner). The insurable interest can also be based upon "love and affection", and to that extent, a parent may be the beneficiary. There are other permutations of "insurable interest" that are defined by statute and interpretative case law. Insurance company underwriting guidelines also often address it. All of that said, the insurable interest must exist at the inception of the policy. If the relationship between the parties subsequently changes (such as a divorce), the efficacy of the beneficiary designation will not change as long as the insurable interest existed when the policy was issued.

What are the characteristics of an insurable risk?

The essence of an insurable risk is essentially one in which the person or entity insured has an "insurable interest". This means, that the insured must have a reasonable expectation of advantage, usually monetary, from the continued existence of the property or life insured. It need not be an ownership interest. For example, a spouse who did not have an ownership interest in her husband's car, but who had the right to use the car, would have a sufficient insurable interest in it to support a contract of insurance. The lack of an insurable interest makes an insurance contract essentially a gambling contract--because the person taking out the insurance really has nothing to lose if the property insured is destroyed.


Are pure risks always insurable?

Pure RisksPure risks, or those that have the possibility of loss or no loss, but no possibility of gain, are insurable, but there are criteria that must be met before they will be insured. So, no, they are not ALWAYS insurable. For example, a person who has been diagnosed with terminal cancer who attempts to acquire insurance will generally be refused. Though it is a pure risk because the person will either live (no loss) or die (loss), factors that determine eligibility for insurance are not met for that person. Likewise, a homeowner who has had previous fires in their homes may not be able to find insurance because they are considered too great a risk to insure, even though there will either be no fires (no loss) or there will be (loss) at their current home.There is another type of risk that is not insurable. Speculative risk, or risk with a possibility of gain, is that type of risk.
